Strange things happen when you become unemployed. First and foremost, you are immediately inundated with bills that come out of nowhere, people wanting you to sin-up/register for a million different things and of course there is no money to even cover the normal stuff so you are just stuck.

I believe the premise that "people who are unemployed are lazy" is by and large a crock. I haven't stopped moving the entire month and a half that I have been out of work. And yet at the same time I don't really feel as those I have been getting much done really. Somewhat depressing honestly, to think you are headed in the right direction and yet so swiftly be kicked off course through no fault of your own. What a mess.

So now there are a lot of big decisions that need to be made. But mainly you really just need to figure out, Where are we going?

No. Seriously. It is cold. I realize that I live in California and anybody from anywhere east of Nevada is just shaking their head and laughing at me but the fact that it is 3:18 and the current temperature is 48 degrees...that is bad. I mean they are honestly predicting snow on Saturday. It doesn't snow here!! And the worst part about the whole thing is that I have to run a marathon on Sunday. HA!

But of course this would be the weather for my 2nd marathon. I mean the weather for the first was a monsoon (last year, same marathon: so much rain the streets were literally flooding). My luck is just really fortunate in this manner.

Could you imagine if it was actually snowing as we were running in? How awful would that be?!
